How much does Zorva Labs cost?

$57 per month, all-in. That includes the custom website build (no setup fee), domain registration with DNS management, Zorva Edge hosting, SSL, daily backups, uptime monitoring, and monthly content changes. Larger custom work is billed at $33/hour, always quoted upfront.

Does Zorva Labs handle SEO and AI search optimization?

Yes — every site we build comes with on-page SEO and AI search optimization (AIO, AEO, GEO) baked in. That covers schema markup, llms.txt, structured FAQs, conversational headings, and the entity graph that ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity rely on. Zorva Grow adds high-authority backlinks as a $257/month add-on.

Is the website really free?

Yes. We design and build your custom 3-page website at no upfront cost — it's bundled into the $57/month plan. As long as you stay subscribed, your site is live and maintained.

How long does it take to launch a website?

Most websites are live within 7 days. We request your content on day 1, send a preview by day 4, and launch after your approval.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes — no contracts, cancel from your Stripe portal anytime. We do ask for a 90-day minimum after launch to cover the initial build cost.

Why not just use Wix, Squarespace, or WordPress?

Those builders look cheap but cost more once you add apps, plugins, hosting, and your own time to build. Wix Business with apps runs $72/mo. WordPress with hosting and plugins runs $60/mo plus your time. And the sites are template-driven, hard to customize, and don't get optimized for AI search engines like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Perplexity. Plus, you have to build it yourself or pay a developer.

What kind of website changes are included?

Text edits, photo swaps, hours and price updates, contact info changes, small layout tweaks, and any change under 15 minutes — all included. Larger projects like new pages, redesigns, or integrations are quoted at $33/hour.

Where is Zorva Labs based?

Zorva Labs is based in Nashville, Tennessee. We serve small businesses across the United States and Canada.

Yes. You own your domain, the source code, the design, your logo, your content, and your brand. If you ever leave Zorva Labs, you take everything with you intact — no rebuild required. Unlike Wix, Squarespace, or most agencies, there's no vendor lock-in.

Bakery SEO: The 2026 Playbook for Booking Custom Cakes + Filling Daily Trays

How bakeries win local search in 2026 — Google Business Profile photo strategy, custom cake landing pages, wedding cake niche, schema markup, and AI search optimization that drives both walk-in traffic and high-margin special orders.

Bakery display case with pastries — bakery SEO concept

TL;DR

Bakery SEO has two engines: walk-in daily traffic (GBP + Instagram-driven) and custom orders (search + planner-driven, especially weddings). The 2026 winning stack: GBP with 100+ recent product photos, Bakery + FoodEstablishment schema, custom cake landing pages with wedding cake focus, and llms.txt for AI citations.

Bakery SEO splits between daily walk-in traffic and high-margin custom orders. Wedding cakes alone can be a \$200K+/year revenue line for a small bakery — and they're won on SEO.

Bakery search arenas

Daily walk-in — "bakery near me," "coffee shop [city]." Volume.
Wedding cakes — "wedding cake [city]." High-margin niche.
Custom + specialty cakes — birthday, anniversary, baby shower.
Dietary specialty — gluten-free bakery, vegan bakery, keto bakery.

Custom cake landing pages

Wedding Cakes — portfolio gallery, pricing per tier, tasting appointment booking.
Birthday Cakes — themed cakes, character cakes, custom design.
Specialty (gluten-free, vegan) — dedicated dietary pages.

FAQ

The Knot + WeddingWire for wedding cakes?
